New Dehli: In what maybe a sign of things to come, Vistara—the joint venture between Tata Sons Ltd and Singapore Airlines Ltd (SIA)—has announced its first tie-up with the latter.

The partnership will allow frequent fliers on Vistara and SIA to accrue and redeem air miles on each other’s flights.

The accruals will begin from March and redemptions will start in May, Vistara said in a statement on Thursday.

“We are pleased to enter into this strategic partnership with Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer programme, which widens the choice and benefits for Club Vistara members," chief executive Vistara Phee Teik Yeoh said in the statement.

Tata Sons holds a majority stake of 51% in Vistara and SIA the remaining 49%. It’s the third full-service airline operating in India after state-run Air India Ltd and Jet Airways (India) Ltd.

Vistara has also launched an interline agreement with SIA. Such an agreement allows airline partners to accept each other’s travel tickets. The service provides an opportunity for passengers to travel without losing time by offering them the facility of a through-baggage check-in.
